Using the Monitor
Selecting the Correct Cuff Size
Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the cuff is
not the proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood pressure value.
The arm size is printed on each cuff.
The index and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are applying the
correct cuff. (Refer to Table "Symbols that are printed on the cuff" on the next
page)
If the index points outside of the range, contact your local dealer to
purchase a replacement cuff.
The arm cuff is a consumable. If it becomes worn, purchase a new one.

Arm size: The circumference at the biceps.
Applying the Arm Cuff
1. Wrap the cuff around the upper arm,
about 1 to 2 cm above the inside of
the elbow, as shown.
Place the cuff directly against the
skin, as clothing may cause a faint
pulse, and result in a measurement
error.
2. Constriction of the upper arm,
caused by tightly rolling up a
shirtsleeve, may prevent accurate
readings.
3. Confirm that the index points
within the proper fit range.
Do not roll up shirtsleeve tightly.
